Governor Kathy Hochul has announced $35 million in funding for public sector entities to install and operate Level 2 electric vehicle chargers across New York State. The Charge Ready NY Large Public Sector Project programme, administered by NYSERDA, will award between $1 million and $15 million per project to state agencies, local governments and university systems installing chargers on publicly owned land for general public use.
Why it matters: The competitive programme creates a substantial procurement pipeline for Level 2 infrastructure suppliers and installers working with public sector clients in New York. With individual awards reaching up to $15 million, the scheme signals significant contract opportunities for CPOs and contractors capable of delivering large scale public charging deployments.
